Pitchfork Music Festival iPhone App

Nice Design on this iPhone App for Pitch­fork Music Fes­ti­val 2011.

Though I wish there was a link to-the-top on the Info page. But over­all, sim­ple, read­able and to the point. More screens below.

Action Method by Behance


Action Method — Splash 20080916, orig­i­nal­ly uploaded by stechico.

In a recent announce­ment, Behance unveils its new prod­uct called Action Method (AMO). They have spent the past year design­ing and devel­op­ing the new plat­form for pro­duc­tiv­i­ty and project man­age­ment.

The sys­tem is based on the “Action Method” and the design of our paper prod­uct line, but the tech­nol­o­gy itself is rev­o­lu­tion­ary. Now being beta-test­ed by a select group of peo­ple and teams, AMO is a web-based appli­ca­tion that offers a rad­i­cal­ly dif­fer­ent approach to man­ag­ing projects and col­lab­o­rat­ing with oth­ers.

Use a Single Mouse and Keyboard Between Multiple Computers


For those that have a lap­top and a work-sta­tion or desk­top PC/Mac, we are often faced with the ques­tion of how to fit and work on both on our tiny lit­tle desks (but that’s prob­a­bly just me). Any­ways, if you haven’t heard of Syn­er­gy+:

Syn­er­gy lets you eas­i­ly share a sin­gle mouse and key­board between mul­ti­ple com­put­ers with dif­fer­ent oper­at­ing sys­tems, each with its own dis­play, with­out spe­cial hard­ware. It’s intend­ed for users with mul­ti­ple com­put­ers on their desk since each sys­tem uses its own monitor(s).

To-do List in Google Calendar

It seems that I am find­ing Google Cal­en­dar (cur­rent­ly being referred to as gCal by technopiles) an alter­na­tive to Out­look late­ly. Even though I wish that Google would fin­ish up imple­ment­ing some kind of sync­ing between gCal and Out­look already. But luck­i­ly, there’s a “hack” that helps out in that side of things. I guess its enough to hold me down for a bit till some­thing from Google comes about.

Any­ways, one of the oth­er things that I was hop­ing gCal to have was a sim­ple to-do list(s), aka. Tasks for those Out­look-ori­ent­ed peo­ple. As I was Blin­go-ing for an inte­gra­tion of some kind of to-do list with gCal, this arti­cle was on top of the list by Matias Pelenur. It does the job using JS, GM and Fire­Fox. Although at the moment, it only saves your to-do list per GM install; local­ly that is, per com­put­er. But there are a cou­ple of workarounds that can be done to make it store to ser­vices such as Ama­zon S3, gCal itself, etc. as not­ed by Matias.

Sup­pos­ed­ly, Google men­tioned the avail­abil­i­ty of an “Account Authen­ti­ca­tion Proxy for Web Appli­ca­tions” fea­ture that will be inter­grat­ed with their gCal API in late April… this past April in fact. I guess we’ll just have to wait for an update on Matias about that, or from Google regard­ing their own home-blend­ed to-do list inte­gra­tion with gCal.

Protopage Reboots

protopage-v2

Pro­topage just seems to keep get­ting bet­ter and bet­ter. Late­ly, they updat­ed to ver­sion 2.0. That’s “2.0” as in “Web 2.0”—HA! *snick­er* OK. I admit, it’s still too ear­ly on the week for such fool­ish word­ings but all is fair in the land of web tech­nol­o­gy and blog­ging.
